The Elvinator
References: instructables & walyou
I love the Instructables website and really should spend more time browsing it to discover awesomeness like this Elvis Presley meets the Terminator robot. They have really hit gold with 'The Elvinator' do it yourself project.
An ongoing project, it aims to combine a robotic Elvis head with the Terminator. By ongoing I mean the project is not finalized, but let's all pray to the God of "crap things that have no purpose" to try and make sure it does happen.
It only needs to look a tiny bit like the photograph and it would rock.
